Selected Works
Painting as an open system between construction and dissolution.
Contemporary painting that emerges from the tension between a photographic model and the painterly composition. The focus is not on representation, but on the development of an independent pictorial space—one with depth, atmosphere, and a physical presence.
My works evolve through the creative process: from the initial application of paint to the consolidation of the form. My painting involves layering, consolidation, and deliberate reduction.
Color, surface, and texture are not merely means to an end, but rather constitutive elements of the painting. The result is a body of work that transcends the subject matter and stands as a distinct voice within contemporary painting.
The works shown here are a selection of pieces from recent years.
I can send an expanded portfolio featuring additional groups of works upon request.
New Series 2026
The current works emerge from a condensation of earlier visual systems. Motif fragments, symbols, and spatial arrangements are no longer developed but rather juxtaposed. The images oscillate between construction and dissolution.
Economic, metaphysical, and personal visual spaces overlap without coalescing into a fixed meaning. The focus is not on the individual motif, but on the relationship between the elements—as an open system.
Within this new body of work, various energetic states emerge:
A heavy, conflict-ridden density, as seen in *Sternstunden der Menschheit*, stands alongside transformatively charged, color-intensive pictorial spaces, as in *Die Quelle*, and open, flowing transitional zones, as expressed in *Der Hafen *.
The result is not a linear narrative structure, but rather a field of tension—between grounding and dissolution, between resistance and transcendence.
These works are not intended to be finished pieces, but rather states within a shifting system.
The tension between the original and painterly independence
My painting emerges from the tension between reference and autonomy. Photographic or real-world references are dissolved in the process and transformed into autonomous pictorial structures in which material, color, and density convey the meaning.
As a process-based practice, my work navigates the space between autonomous painting and its role as a form of translation within a social context—between mediation, production, and authorship.
